OK seriously this is the last of the Cigar Box guitar videos! Same setup as the last one, just a different riff I came up with and wanted to get it recorded.
Again this is a custom made Cigar Box guitar made by my friend Darren Brown. As you can tell I'm having a load of fun with it. It's amazing to me how much music can come out of 3 strings, on a cigar box no less. I'm no pro player, much the less a slide/open tuning player, but I'm slowly picking up things, having this around to pluck on is helping my chops a bit.
Many thanks to Darren for making me this guitar, if you're interested in getting one made yourself, send me a message and I'll give you his contact info. He's in Canning Nova Scotia and also has some available for sale at Moe's Music in the Valley.
not too sure, but I think it's just a super cheap piezo pickup. nothing fancy! keepin it simple!

Is that an original composition? It's really really nice. I could listen to that all day.

yeah thanks! It's just one of the riffs that came up while I was trying to wrap my head around the 3 string open tuning. Pretty much everything I play on this thing is unlike anything I would normally play, so it's pretty cool!
Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it!
